nerve
Hi,
Is the following sentence correct? "She has no respect for me and she has the nerve to ask me money!!!"
By using "nerve" I mean she dares ask me money.

In North America, we would say '....the nerve to ask me for money.'

She is the one who has the nerve.
She has the gall, imputence, boldness, to ask me . . .
